See ias exam is such a exam which does require hard work not maximum hour study.
as far as duration is concerned it will vary from person to person.
It will not remain same.
It should be focused more on quality study not on quantity

See you must really concentrate on the quality and not the quantity you study.Because it is the quality which matters.
So study only that much you can grasp and digest consisitantly

Re: IAS Exam Details

Hi,
There are two things that you need to crack IAS exam
1) Time management
You should divide your schedule to each and every subject require.
2) Proper selection of books and other materials
You should select subjects for prelims and mains in which you are quite comfortable. You should subscribe to Pratiyogita Darpan Magazine for current affairs.
If you are choosing history, Geography as your subjects then NCERT books are fine. You can get the full syllabus for each subject on the upsc website.

you can say yes, but there is a saying that you cannot hide the talent.
So if you are really hard working talented sincere student you will definately succed.
Its not always that those doing coaching classes only qualify.
The CSAT though will give more opportunity to MBA aspirants but there is nothing that is very tough.
a normal studnet who has the required qualification can easily solve those questions without any problem
One thingkeep in mind that there is other stage which is Mains exam that has not change.
The mains sreening will be there.
CSAT will help to include maximum students but only talented will qualify

I want to give ias exam, but hav very little knowlede which is negligible about ias exam preparation.
